If the surgical style gloves under gloves works for you than that's a great way to go. Doesn't work for me, my hands get all clammy inside the non breathable layer... I have these, (or ones just like them, didn't order online) they're fantastic.

Get yourself a pair of waterproof riding gloves. The best ones have the waterproofing baked in like a Gore-Tex or Hydratex or something. Might be a little more coin, but worth it IMO.
I'm not so sure some of the 'Band-Aid' remedies work well. They may keep you dry short term, but on a long trip your riding gloves over those quick remedies still get wet and may not fully dry for the next days ride.

I ordered the sealskinz on amazon. My first thought was, seal skin? Really? That MUST be waterproof. Turns out they're goat skin, but as far as I know goats are waterproof too. LOL

I'm currently wearing TourMaster Dri-Mesh gloves. I like them and they're definitely waterproof. But when hands get sweaty the liner sticks a little and pulls out some when removing the gloves. Not a big deal but kind of annoying when putting them back on. When hands are dry, no issues at all.

I have used Nixwax it is o.k. Snowproof (from a snowmobile shop) is real good. My brother has used beeswax (toilet bowl ring). Get gloves (or any other leather) good and hot. Apply and rub in good, keep it warm to hot. Air dryer or hot air gun works great. Wipe off exess and wala water proof gloves. Been doing it for years and works great. If you do the beeswax route do it on a day your not gunna ride. Walk around with gloves on and carry a towel and wipe them a lot. Don't have to do this but have found that it keeps the "wax" from getting on the grips.
